[Differences between Minimary Invasive Cardiac Surgery and Robot-assisted Cardiac Surgery in Mitral Valve Repair].

Kyobu geka. The Japanese journal of thoracic surgery
It has been more than 10 years since the introduction of small-incision surgery for cardiac valvular disease. The so-called minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS) techniques avoid the need for sternotomy, but they are still not considered standard...

[Tips for Successful Robot-assisted Mitral Valve Repair].

Kyobu geka. The Japanese journal of thoracic surgery
Robot-assisted valve repair refers to an intervention added to conventional minimally invasive cardiac surgery( MICS), which is covered by national insurance since April 2018. However, currently, this procedure is performed only at a few hospitals, w...

[Robot-assisted Cardiac Surgery Council and Current Status and Future Prospect of Robotic Mitral Valve Surgery in Japan].

Kyobu geka. The Japanese journal of thoracic surgery
The Robot-assisted Cardiac Surgery Council (RACSC) was established in 2015, and consists of the members of three closely related surgical societies and associations. The RACSC conducts the review and approval of applicant surgeons and institutions. A...

Bilateral endoscopic technique for left atrial appendectomy and robot-assisted mitral valve repair.

Interactive cardiovascular and thoracic surgery
We report a bilateral thoracoscopic technique in which robot-assisted mitral valve repair was achieved concomitantly with stapler division of the large left atrial appendage. The patient was a 65-year-old male with severe mitral regurgitation, paroxy...

Individual patient data meta-analysis of the effects of the CARILLON® mitral contour system.

ESC heart failure
AIMS: Functional mitral regurgitation (MR) (FMR) is common in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and worsens morbidity and mortality, even when mild. The CARILLON® mitral contour system (Cardiac Dimensions, Kirkland, WA, USA), a mitral annu...

[Early Clinical Outcomes of Robotic Mitral Valve Repair;Initial Twenty Cases].

Kyobu geka. The Japanese journal of thoracic surgery
We report the early results of our initial 20 consecutive robotic-assisted mitral valve repairs at our institution. A total of 20 patients (aged 55±10 years, 15 males) underwent robotic assisted mitral repairs by using da Vinci system. Successful mit...

Commentary: Robotic Techniques in Cardiac and Thoracic Surgery (Innovations, May/June 2020).

Innovations (Philadelphia, Pa.)
This is a response to the papers in the May/June issue of focused on robotic techniques in cardiac and thoracic surgery. Successful robotic surgery relies on a high level of preparation and communication from each member of the operating room. The l...

Mitral repair and the robot: a revolutionary tool or marketing ploy?

Current opinion in cardiology
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: In this review, we discuss the current evidence supporting each minimally invasive mitral repair approach and their associated controversies.
